Essex Challenge Team v Chelmsford
Sunday 12th March
Chelmsford Golf Club
First match of the season in the newly formed SE England Challenge League which, for Essex, is replacing the previous Colts League.
Team: Olly Allison, Theo & Ollie Baker, Rory Bennet, Jack Boyd, Joe Green, Ed Mason, Callum Newton, Dominic Piccolo, Cassidy Steffens.
This early friendly match was fixed so that Essex could assess their new players and Chelmsford could do likewise for their Thornton Cup Team. Essex played several new players and borrowed two from the under 18 squad.
Due to the recent weather the course was extremely wet and closed to all buggies and trolleys. Carry for 36 holes – quite a test for all.
Chelmsford started well in the morning foursomes – up in four of the matches after nine holes. Their first pair of Michael Gilbert & Freddie Warn beat Olly & Cass 5&4. Joe & Callum 1 up after nine, maintained their lead and finished 3&1. Dominic & Jack from being 2 down after nine went on to finish all square. The last two matches went to the 17th and 18th respectively. Ed & Ollie losing 2&1 and Theo & Rory 1 down.
Foursomes 1½ / 3½
Scores in the afternoon singles were more varied. Chelmsford in the lead again after nine – Essex only up in three matches and all square in one. Ed & Ollie (our borrowed under 18’s) both had excellent wins – Ollie 8&7 and Ed 7&5. Dominic maintained his early start and finished 4&3. Essex’s wins finished there! Olly lost on the 18th 2 down and Cass, Callum and Rory on the 16th.
Singles 3 – 7
Match Total 4½ / 10½
An excellent day of golf played in such good spirit.
Thank you to Chelmsford Golf Club and Good Luck in the 2023 Thornton Cup
